"The cuckoo comes in April,
Sings a song in May:
Then in June another tune,
And then she flies away."

DYK Jamie, I was so sorry to hear about Luna. I am glad she did not suffer.

"dyk Tex-Mex in New York City seems funny to me.

dyk Come to Texas, we have the best fajitas, tex-mex, and BBQ. Might not all be SB, but it sure is yummy."

DYK My mother is from Colorado, and growing up in NY I always remember her missing Mexican food. In the 70's there wasn't Mexican in NY!

DYK Then when I moved here some of my students took me to a Mexican restaurant. I had to tell them what everything on the menu was. One girl saw me drinking a margarita and ordered one thinking the salt on the rim of the glass was sugar...boy did she get a surprise!

DYK Thanks Joy!

DYK I had to give myself a good talking to about the lack of exercise?

DYK I tend to have to do that from time to time?

DYK I just kept telling myself during the winter that it would be so nice to walk outside when the weather got nice, so when it finally did get nice, I had to actually do it?

DYK So I've been taking 30 minute walks (around 3mph), 3 times a week?

DYK Our street isn't very long, so I walk it back and forth 3 times?

DYK 2 days a week I have been riding my stationary bike ...I'm up to 7 miles in just over 30 minutes...

DYK And 1 day a week I'm doing an upper body workout video for 30 minutes?

DYK I just have to keep convincing myself to take it 1 day at a time and do some kind of exercise for 30 minutes?

DYK I'm actually really enjoying the walking...I drag Bruce and Maegan out on Sunday afternoons to walk with me?

"dyk and since European flights started again, it looks like we actually get to go to Germany next week, as planned! I can't believe it is so soon!"

DYK I was thinking about you. The chaos here is incredible. People have been taking taxis from Madrid to Paris, school children on their end of year trips stuck abroad, people running out of their prescription medications, etc, etc. I'm glad you won't miss out on your trip!

DYK I don't blame you, Karri?

DYK I would certainly take pictures of her dog pooping too?

DYK In the past, we have accepted a few packages for the neighbors and had Maegan take them over to them in the evenings?

DYK Most of the time, if the woman is home by herself, she won't even answer the door?

DYK And this is the neighbor that keeps cutting our grass right up to our fence, which includes our entire side yard and occasionally pulling his kid's trampoline onto our side yard?

DYK I told Bruce last time that I was not accepting any more UPS packages for them...the UPS guy doesn't want to leave the packages there because they have a big GSD that runs loose (invisible fence)...which btw, the invisible fence also crosses over onto our property?

DYK Only good thing...the trampoline fell apart and they dismantled it?

DYK But then Bruce had to give them the springs that inadvertently flew off and landed in our yard?

DYK Thanks D!

DYK It's not much, but since the scale isn't moving weight-wise, I'm desperate for something to change?

DYK I try to get my husband and son to join me? Sometimes I can convince my son to come, but my DH will come about twice a year!

DYK I'll give you the Tex-Mex, Karri, but we have the best BBQ here in the South!

"DYK oh and my trainer tore her plantar fascia and has 17 fractures in her foot- OW!"

DYK OW indeed?

DYK How did she do that?
